  3. Thank you so much for visiting and for your very kind words Larissa! <3 There is so much to love about this photo, and it brings back some intertesting memories of quiet foggy mornings. It's could be straight out of a fairy tale or a haunting story :) (I've just visited your blog too and couldn't leave a comment, but I wanted to say the Raspberry Chocolate Ganache buttons in that shop look good enough to eat! Awesome feature!)
